Hook-Driving Shaft and Attached Parts

the   arm   shaft,   grasp   it   with   the   left   hand   and withdraw   it   from   the   face   of   the   machine. Right-   and   Left-Hand   Bed   Slide   Plates The   bed   slide   plates   allow   for   inspection   and maintenance  of  the  bobbin  assembly.  The  right- hand   bed   slide   has   a   cutout   on   the   bottom   side. This  cutout  allows  the  needle  thread  to  pass  over the   bobbin   case   without   jamming. Throat  Plate The   throat   plate   acts   as   a   guide   for   the   feed dog  and  provides  a  firm  foundation  over  which the   material   may   flow   while   the   stitch   is   being made.   The   throat   plate   does   not   need   to   be removed   from   the   machine. Needlebar   Rock   Frame   Rockshaft The  needlebar  rock  frame  rockshaft  carries  the feeding   motion   and   power   from   the   feeding mechanism   in   the   bed   of   the   machine   to   the needlebar   rock   frame.   To   remove   the   needlebar rock   frame   rockshaft,   you   insert   the   screwdriver in  the  opening  in  the  rear  of  the  uprise  and  loosen the   needlebar   rock   frame   rockshaft   crank   pinch screw.

Needlebar   Rock   Frame Rockshaft   Crank   and   Connection The  needlebar  rock  frame  rockshaft  crank  and connection   transfers   the   feeding   motion   and power   from   the   feed-driving   rockshaft   crank   to the   needlebar   rock   frame   rockshaft.   To   remove the   needlebar   rock   frame   rockshaft   crank   and connection,   you   loosen   the   pinch   screw   at   the feed-driving   rockshaft   crank   (figure   4-6   [G]). Then   you   grasp   the   feed-driving   rockshaft   crank (figure   4-6   [H]),   slide   it   to   the   right   to   remove   it from   the   feed-driving   rockshaft,   and   withdraw   it from   the   machine.   In   so   doing,   the   needlebar   rock frame   rockshaft   crank   and   connection   parts   are also   removed.   The   parts   removed   remain   as   an assembly. Feed-Driving   Rockshaft   Crank The   feed-driving   rockshaft   crank   transfers   the feeding   motion   of   the   feed-driving   rockshaft   to the   needlebar   rock   frame   rockshaft   crank   and connection.   The   feed-driving   rockshaft   crank   is removed   simultaneously   with   the   needlebar   rock frame   rockshaft   crank   and   connection. Feed-Lifting   Cam   Fork The   feed-lifting   cam   fork   gives   the   feed   dog its   up   and   down   motion   during   the   feeding operation.   To   remove   the   feed-lifting   cam   fork, you   unscrew   the   feed-lifting   cam   fork   screw (figure  4-6  [E]),  tilt  the  fork  toward  the  operator, and   withdraw   it. Feed-Driving   Rockshaft The   feed-driving   rockshaft   (figure   4-6   [L]) coordinates   the   feeding   motion   of   the   feed   dog and  the  feeding  of  the  needle.  To  remove  the  feed- driving   rockshaft,   proceed   in   the   following manner   (refer   to   figure   4-6): .   Loosen   the   hook   saddle   adjusting   screw (figure   4-6   [B]). .   Loosen   the   hook   saddle   pinch   screw   (figure 4-6   [A]). .  Slide  the  hook  saddle  to  the  right  as  far as   possible. .   Loosen   the   feed-driving   rockshaft   crank pinch   screw   (figure   4-6   [G]). .   Loosen   the   setscrews   on   each   of   the   feed- driving   rockshaft   stop   collars   (figure   4-6   [M]). l   Lift   the   feed   bar   toward   the   operator until   it   reaches   a   stop   position.   Move   the   bar   to the  left  until  it  strikes  the  bed  of  the  machine.  Lift the   bar   upward   to   clear   the   bed   of   the   machine and   continue   moving   it   to   the   left   until   the   right end   of   the   shaft   reaches   the   feed-driving   crank; this   action   forces   the   right   feed-driving   rockshaft stop   collar   from   the   rockshaft.   Continue   moving the   rockshaft   to   the   left   until   it   clears   the left   stop   collar.   Withdraw   the   rockshaft   from   the machine. Feed-Driving   Rockshaft   Stop   Collars The   feed-driving   rockshaft   stop   collars   and setscrews   (figure   4-6   [M])   act   as   retainers   on   each end   of   the   feed-driving   rockshaft   to   prevent   any side-to-side   play.   The   feed-driving   rockshaft   stop collars   are   removed   in   conjunction   with   the feed-driving     rockshaft. 4-25
